Kids Day in the Park is a festival geared to families of small children. While Kids Day is certainly a fun day of activities for small children and their families, it is also a health and resources fair with providers on hand to engage parents and provide information. Target group is children 12 and younger and their parents. This year's theme is "Water, Water Everywhere" and will include, fun, hands on activities for kids that focus on water conservation, health and the environment.
COLLABORATORS
Kids Day in the Park is a broad partnership of health, education and service providers in the community. Players include Cordova Recreation and Park District, Sacramento County, Folsom Cordova Unified School District and healthcare providers such as Kaiser Permanente. In 2011, nearly 100 exhibitors participated, with each providing a free activity for children at their booth. This is a volunteer-powered event.
